No problem on the multicharacter thing, they're more there for the back ground than actually planning on playing them, never been a fan of playing more than one character honestly.

Hider

Name:Tenne Byzant
Age:18
Gender:Female
Animal: Spotted Hyena
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 200lbs
Hair Color: Light Brown
Eye Color:Golden Brown
Physique: Fairly muscular, amazonian build. Toned muscles with six pack. C-cup
Personality:

(Trait 1): Short Temper- Tenne is always one to take offense easily, rarely holding a grudge when she could settle the matter then and there. While are has tempered the heat somewhat, she's still likely to throw the first punch in a fight if she thinks she has a chance...and sometimes when she doesnt. This also means she's likely the first to leap to someone's defense, ready to fight their battles for them. Ofcourse there isn't always a battle to be won till she arrives.

(Trait 2):Maternal- Having basically raised her brothers with her father always working and their mother dead, Tenne has what she considers a annoyingly persistent need t take care of others, and while it may not be considered TLC, she's rarely able to just abadon someone that looks like they need a leg up. Just be ready to listen to a lot of grumbling in the process

Background:
Born an native to Downtown Almaston, Tennes family was one of the few beastkin families able to stay independent, with her father working wherever he could and her mother having gotten a job helping in a backalley clinic. Though few could say that their living conditions were optimal, it was better than most beastkin could attest to, it was preferable to being owned or split apart. Tenne herself was what one  would call a willful child, often being brought home by towns guards for "provoking" upstanding humans, more often than not covered in more than a few bruises. Other than that things weren't so bad.

Unfortunately, both happiness and despair were brought into the house when she was thirteen. Her mother had rough labor, dying in child birth while being her twin brothers into the world. Afterwards, with now two more mouths to feed, and no longer having their mothers income, Tenne's father was rarely ever home any longer than to sleep a handful of hours, losing touch with his children in the process. Despite his best efforts, the money was not enough to support them all, and so he did not question it when Tenne began bringing home more money than himself.

Early after the birth of her brothers, Tenne became determined to whatever was necessary to keep them going, and soon found her rather paper thin temper could be well served acting as an enforced among gangs. Early on she mearly beat down opposing cutpurses, putting the fear of death to them. However she quickly rose up the ranks, often providing support at meetings between rivals and such. She had to admit, she rather enjoyed a easy source to vent her pent up aggression. However making a name for yourself in these circles comes at a cost.

She came home one day to find her home ransacked, with her young brothers sporting multiple fractures. After working her way through the group that hit her home, she was forced to admit other options were needed. Doing a few last jobs, Tenne saved the money to buy her way out of the gang, as well as grease a few palms to get a rather rough character such as herself into Hartriche Academy. If she's being honest, she'd much rather be still smashing things and getting paid for it...

But Family Comes First.

Will finish the background later today, having to kinda rewrite that bit. Might be awhile though since I've got my tabletop campaign today.
.Edit: Also, trying to find a picture, but not a lot of hyena based art out there -_-, should honestly just commision someone.

[MelodyNoir]

@BlackPanther
That could very well be so xD We shall see~
I already have a few interaction ideas with the current cast of characters, and admittedly Lapis is one of them :P

[Rakurai]

@The Fox Without
The character looks great so far, though yeah.
I'd really like to see it accompanied by an image...
And can totally understand how it'd be difficult to find a suitable image.

On the note of commissions, I know MelodyNoir does them xD
Actually have a dozen or so characters I've personally commissioned from them~
I'll let them decide whether they're open to commissions or not at the moment,
Though I will say, Ari's drawn by them, and I think he looks gorgeous xD

[MelodyNoir]

Well, regarding if I'm open for commissions or not, I am :)

Suppose you could always just send me a message if you are interested :)

Hider

Name:
Ozzy

Age:
18

Gender:
Male

Animal:
Black Bear

Height:
6'7"

Weight:
255lbs

Hair Color:
Black

Eye Color:
A Really Dark Blue

Personality:

(Lazy):
If there's a brief moment of free time you can find Ozzy sleeping or just laying around. He does get enough sleep but he loves it so much that he sleep when he gets the chance to. While he's nearing the closing his eyes phase and then dosing off he often grabs the nearest thing and clings to it as if it were a teddy bear. This doesn't exclude people he'll reach out and if he gets ahold of you it's probably to late. The person he grabs might as well act like the best stuff animal they can be.

(Friendly):
Ozzy comes from a type of bear that first thoughts on when met by a threat is to retreat unless there's a cub then they maul the enemy. Unlike his species Ozzy is very friendly and loves all his friends dearly. He doesn't often resort to violence but if he does it's most likely for an agreeable good reason. His friends sometimes turns out to be people he mistakenly grab and hold onto when he's sleeping. Yes that's an odd way to make friends but you can't get angry at a big soft guy.

Background:
When Ozzy was a cub he must of sleep when his pack started to move and was left behind. He wasn't aware that he was stranded so he went on in the complete opposite direction his pack went in. Soon he cane upon a small town that often had bears and forest animals pass through. Ozzy didn't know what possessed a human to raise a bear cub that's what happened when he crossed paths with a young married couple. The couple raised Ozzy as a human boy even though he had bear ears and a puffy sphere like tail. He grew up loving his human parents and siblings even if the rest of the town didn't like what was going on within their household.

To avoid the continues protests and small riots outside their home Ozzy decided that it would best if he leaved so the family could live in peace. Of course his human parents didn't like the thought of this but had no choice in the matter. Before he left his parents gifted him with a large teddy bear to remind him that he is dangerous but can still be the most nicest and softest animal he can be. With his loving memories of his human family Ozzy planned to go to school to become a veterinarian so he can help other animals like his parents did for him.

@MelodyNoir....

Omg, I am going to give you so much money, been looking for someone to do my OCs for awhile...how do you feel about weapons

[MelodyNoir]

@The Fox Without
I'm glad you like what you see :D
I'm pretty comfortable with drawing weapons, ranging from guns, swords and bows.
Perhaps if we are going to keep discussing this, perhaps doing it through messages would be better so we don't spam the OOC :P

@Slendy
Ozzy looks adorable, I love the image you chose :)

[Slendy]

@MelodyNoir
:P Thank You!

[BlackPanther]

*bounces excitedly*

[MelodyNoir]

Raika? You need to get started xD Don't keep the Cake waiting too long~
Says the guy who just uploaded his NPC sheet today... Shhh, details >.> xD

[Rakurai]

Another post from me and... it's not the IC yet.
I think I might be developing some sort of sadistic trait.
It's just so fun watching BlackPanther shrivel up each time... jk

@Slendy
Ozzy is accepted, certainly seems like an interesting addition to the group.
I wonder if he'll wake up violently if I stick a broom handle up his nose...

But yes, all distractions are now gone.
And The Cake is making vague threats in my direction so I guess I should put an end to torturing a certain black feline.... :P

[BlackPanther]

torture
*deep inhale*
*grabs bag*
*inhaling exhaling*

[MelodyNoir]

@BlackPanther
*Offers some soothing tea*
It's okey, I should have Raikurai somewhat under control...Maybe...
So hopefully this torture will be over soon xD

[BlackPanther]

@MelodyNoir
